Under the Insurance Act in Ontario if you are injured in an accident you may be entitled to statutory accident benefits (treatment costs, income replacement attendant care etc.) In order to access these benefits usually your own Auto Insurance Company will send you an accident benefits package. This typically includes an accident benefits "package" which includes several different forms- OCF-1 Application for Accident Benefits,, an OCF- 2 Employers Confirmation of income, and an OCF-3 Disabillity Certificate. Sometimes included in the package are forms which you are not required to complete and sign. When I first started practising law 25 years ago the application package was 1 page and could be filled out quite easily .Benefits were a lot more straight forward to figure out and receive. This is no longer the case. The initial Application for Accident benefits has to be filled out correctly and within a certain time .If you are losing income or need treatment immediately you don't want any delay by reason of the form being filled out incorrectly or without all the necessary information . To be on the safe side you should seek the advice of a lawyer. Please contact us if we can be of assistance.
